Bevindo a Quinta das Calendulas

My micro project is located in the neighbourhood of a small village in the country side. People here grows corn and rice with is very good to the flies.
You can reach the train station in a half hour walking and from there you are 11 Km from Figueira da Foz (beach).

How is the farm?
The farm is a small project that looks like will never be finished! I live here since 2002.
My idea of agriculture is “not cultivate”. I try to make the right conditions to allow the plants to grow naturally following their own fate.
The pioneer of this approach is Fucuoka. My wish is to adapt this basic system to the conditions in Portugal.
The ground isn’t dig, without chemicals and without compost.
The land is in change from organic farming to integral farming.

What you can do here?
This is a good question … it is always something to be done. You can sort seeds, work in a natural stone wall, dig a well (if you are feeling to do it ;-) ), watch the plants and nature and snail throwing . You can bake bread and prepare medicinal herbs.
